At the National Association of Asset Management & Field Services Leadership Summit, Austin Davis, Chief Value Engineer at PhoenixTeam, led a session focused on the practical applications of AI and the considerations that come with its growing use in property preservation.

Austin tackled some of the biggest opportunities and challenges surrounding AI in property preservation, including AI-generated photo fraud, compliance considerations, and responsible adoption. The session also featured live demonstrations of AI in action, connecting the conversation around emerging risks with practical ways the technology can support day-to-day operations.

The conversation also helped advance an important next step: the formation of an AI governance committee dedicated to developing shared standards and best practices for responsible AI use across property preservation.

Thank you to NAMFS for the opportunity to lead this important discussion and to everyone who brought their perspectives and expertise to the table. We're looking forward to seeing this work take shape and continuing to be part of the progress ahead.

AI in the mortgage industry is moving fast, and HousingWire Banking Summit put the conversations shaping what comes next front and center.

Across the Summit, the focus stayed on the decisions lenders are making now around growth, efficiency, investment, and competitive advantage.

That includes taking a closer look at the economics behind AI adoption. Tela Mathias joined Brian Woodring on stage for the session The Economics of AI: The Hidden Cost of Efficiency, bringing a practical perspective on the business side of AI and what lenders need to account for if their investment is going to translate into real operational value.

That same business lens continues to be central to our work with AI. As AI moves deeper into operations, we’re helping teams look beyond what the technology can do to what it takes to make it work at scale, with a clear understanding of cost, performance, and return.

Thank you to HousingWire for another great Summit, and to everyone who connected with our team to keep the conversations going on and off the stage.

It’s about time we made the introductions official.

If you’ve seen us around the industry lately, there’s a good chance you’ve already met Pivot and Flare.

They’ve made their way into conferences, classrooms, conversations, and more than a few team photos. But there’s more behind each of them than you might expect.

Together, they reflect the balance behind our approach to AI: innovating with purpose while keeping human judgment at the center.

🤖 Meet Pivot: Pivot is a Practitioner and our Chief Robot. His role is to find and apply the right AI solutions, connect the model, tools, and workflow, and know when a person needs to step in. He captures the speed, adaptability, and possibilities of AI when it’s put to work with intention.

🔥Meet Flare: Flare is a Senior Practitioner and our Chief Responsible AI Enthusiast. Born from the experience of PhoenixTeam’s three founders who have worked in mortgage and financial services technology together since 2001, she brings industry experience, practical judgment, and responsibility to the work, helping to ground Pivot’s speed with the human experience and judgment AI still needs.

PhoenixTeam will be back in AI Labs at MBA Annual 2026!

Across two days and six labs, we’re bringing the same practical approach we use in our work across the industry into the room, giving mortgage professionals the opportunity to build stronger AI skills, understand where AI can create value, and navigate implementation with greater confidence.

These aren’t sit-and-listen sessions. Attendees will be building, testing, applying, and working through the kinds of challenges that come with moving AI from interest to responsible, effective implementation.

Step into the AI Labs with us and build the skills to take a more active role in AI adoption across your organization.

PhoenixTeam is leading the AI Labs at MBA Annual 2026, with six hands-on sessions for mortgage professionals ready to move beyond AI curiosity and into the work itself.

Across the labs our team will dig into the work mortgage professionals are navigating right now, from building stronger skills and understanding cost to grounding outputs and stress-testing AI before it becomes part of everyday workflows.

These labs are an extension of the work we’re already leading across the industry, helping organizations move from interest in AI to responsible implementation, with the right skills, guardrails, and use cases to apply it effectively.

Here’s a look at what we’ll be covering:

• AI Upskilling | Build confidence using AI and leave with a practical roadmap for strengthening your skills.

• Moving From Prompt Engineering to Context Engineering | Go beyond better prompts and learn how better context structure, and constraints can lead to stronger, more consistent AI results.

• From Bulletin to Blueprint Using AI |Turn a single source into useful content for leadership, operations, training, and more.

• The Cost of AI | Understand what drives AI spend, how to track it, and how to determine whether that investment is creating value.

• Build Your Own RAGbot | Build an AI assistant grounded in your documents, your instructions, and the information you choose to shape how it responds.

• Trust, But Verify: Four AI Failures to Catch First | Put AI to the test and learn how to recognize the issues that can affect the accuracy and reliability of outputs.

If you’re headed to MBA Annual, make the AI Labs part of your week. Come ready to build, test, and leave with ideas you can put to work immediately.
